We helped @richardburgon.bsky.social set up a new Working Group for MPs and Peers to explore the issues.

In just over a week’s time the Chancellor will unveil her Spring statement.

This week’s letter to 99% members looks at how we should judge whether that statement will enable or prevent the work of national renewal.

Here is a special request to all 99% members ... but you can all help, too.

We need to get as many MPs as possible to attend the launch of our new NHS report.

Here is a longer time series. That is what we suspect is driving how people feel. They have been getting poorer since 2008.

You are right: if the public sector ran a surplus as some argue, it would condemn the private sector to a deficit -- an economic disaster.

The UK economy needs more stimulus, not less.

It looks at what Trump’s victory may permit in the US and how to prevent the same thing happening here.

In this week’s letter to 99% members, we have an open letter to the Editors of the UK’s media suggesting a responsible and accurate way to assess the Budget – and we contrast that approach with the way most of our media will respond.

Here is this week’s letter to members of the 99% Organisation.

For 14 years, we have heard that the ‘state of government finances’ means we can't invest to keep Britain a successful, civilised nation.

That is nonsense.

Yes, this election is about our future.
 
Based on the evidence of the last 14 years, we know what to expect from the Conservatives … and it is nothing like what Sunak says.
